I have that spring set on my '72 142s. I put the fronts on w/ Bilstien Twintube Touring shocks. Stock swaybar.
Made a very noticable difference on how the car handled. I didn't install the rear springs as the car was riding a little low back there to begin with, so by lowering the front, the car was nice and even.

I highly recommend them. If you're after super handling & performance, I think H&R makes a progressive set but it's a bit more money.

These Skandix springs w/ Bilstien HD's would be more than firm enough.

One of these days I'll put on my HD swaybars, but there's more important rotting things I've got to deal with.
